  4. A customer discloses they are on SSI or Social Security Disability benefits All staff and partner staff should act: • Staff will treat them as any other customer and invite them to become a Member • State the workforce center is an Employment Network and invite them to meet with your contact person.

  5. Cont: What do we do?? • Local team determines plan how to connect, i.e. direct introduction if available/ if not email and give number. • Regions will give person a Disability Tip Sheet (person does not need be on SSA), which has the contact information. 5. The EN Rep will meet with the person and process Ticket

  6. Role of the Ticket Contact Rep • Serve as the EN representative at regional level • Seek signature for regional ticket assignment • Responsible for following procedure regarding TTW documents • Provide regional information to the Ticket Coordinator (This person is not assuming the role of the Navigator, but instead the sole purpose is the contact person for the regional TTW and the workforce center teams are being responsive to the job seekers with disabilities.)

  7. Individual Work Plan • A written agreement – 3 components employment plan done by staff and stored in iworks, IWP addendum & 18 month look back. • Refer to the procedure “Processing a Ticket” • Must have an Employment Plan in iworks • Complete IWD addendum • Complete 18 month look back
